Next time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee.And when you’re doing your holiday shopping online, make sure you’re holding a large glass of iced tea.The physical sensation(感觉) of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions—those are the practical lesson drawn from recent research by psychologist John Bargh.
Psychologists have known that one person’s perception(感知) of another’s “warmth” powerfully determines social relationships.Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping(捏造) evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable.Much of this is rooted in early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies’ conceptual(概念的) sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness.Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle.Harlow’s work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.
Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal.Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries.
To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students.A research assistant who was unaware of the study’s hypotheses(假设) handed the students either a hot cup of coffee or a cold drink to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form: The drink was then handed back.After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of “Person A” based on a particular description.Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.
“We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly(抽象地),” says Bargh.
68.The author mentions Harlow’s experiment to show that ______.
A.monkeys have social relationships
B.adults should develop social skills
C.caregivers should be healthy adults
D.babies need warm physical contact
69.In the paragraph 4, the underlined word “rate” can be replaced by ______.
A.describe B.discuss C.evaluate D.praise
70.We can infer from the passage that _______________.
A.capable persons are often cold to others
B.physical temperature affects how we see others
C.feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwide
D.abstract thinking does not come from physical experiences
71.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Physical Sensations and Emotions.
B.Developing Better Drinking Habits.
C.Experiments of Personality Evaluation.
D.Drinking for Better Social Relationships.
答案

举一反三
Last weekends, my kids along with few other kids from the neighborhood volunteered to help me wash my car.My 10-year-old daughter came up with the idea of 36 other people’s cars as well.It was pretty 37 outside and I had no plans to 38 being in the bright sun.She 39 wanted to give lemonade(柠檬汽水)to passerby for free.I had seen little kids 40 and sell fresh lemonade for a small cost but not free.Although I felt 41 , I decided to help her.
42 she asked me, “What if we 43 this a smile car wash?” I couldn’t hold back my tears and 44 her and the other kids to go outside the house and come up with 45 ideas.While I kept myself busy in drying the car, the gang walked up to me with a(n) 46 with beautiful images of smiles.They had “Free Car Wash” written on it and the 47 of their exercise was “smile”.It was pretty neat to see a team of kids ranging 5-11 years with the 48 to do something for others.
All that seemed 49 and came right from their heart.Nothing seemed to 50 to them: their playtime, the heat outside—they just wanted to 51 others and do something nice in the community!

I feel blessed by being 55 by such wonderful and loving souls.

Listening to your heart

4 on a regular flight from Detroit to Tri-City Airport must have felt a little more than 5 during the flight attendant’s greeting as their flight started. She 6 the passengers and stated that the destination would be Midland. A few concerned passengers 7 her, so the flight attendant, obviously not familiar with the area, 8 herself by saying that they would be 9 in “Tri-City” and Bay City.
Chuckles rippled along the aisle as she 10 tried again. This time she informed passengers that the destination would be Saginaw. Now 11 broke out.

Listening to our hearts — for the direction we need is almost always there, deep within.
So if you feel a bit lost, don’t worry. This may be a 20 time to listen. And remember — your pilot knows where you’re going.

Practicing tolerance will allow everyone to form better 43 with each other. Getting to know someone 44 help you understand why they do things 45 from you. It is important to remember that just because something is different does not mean that it is bad. 46 teaches us to keep an even temper and open mind.

If you tolerate 50 it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to 51 who you are or what you believe in. Tolerance just means that you will be 52 of the differences in others and not try to make them change.
It is important to 53 tolerance because it will make everyone’s lives easier. Learn to accept people for their different abilities and interests. The world is a very 54 , and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make 55 .
